Hi guys, ive heard that the 6630 can take normal sim cards as well as 3g, would i have to buy a special 6630 to use my orange sim card or will the phone just work it out? Also is unlocking the phone the same as say the 7610?

Hi there.
I wanted to let you know that the 6630 does not work on the orange network, its a 2.5g and a 3g compatibility issue with the orange network, unless orange dont release their 3g services this is going to be a problem. Unless you have your 6630 working properly on orange?, let me know. Thanks

"Thank you for your mail received 1 December regarding the Nokia 6630.
I would like to advise that as long as it is an Orange phone or a SIM free phone you will be able to use your Sim card. May I suggest that you try your SIM card in the phone before you purchase it to ensure that it is compatible.
